The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion – to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor. Isaiah 61:1-3 (NIV) 2 footprints Living out Isaiah 61 Regardless of their chosen vocation, Wayland alumni are touching lives and speaking freedom to people through ministry in a variety of careers. They’re living out the words of Isaiah as the presence of Christ in a dark world. footprints 3 Comforting t Pond uses role as funeral director for ministry purposes By Teresa Young TULIA – Steve Pond was all set for a career in the ministry when God derailed his plans a bit. Little did he know at the time he was still headed for ministry, just in a completely different way. Raised in Oklahoma, Pond graduated from Lee High School in Midland, Texas, before heading off to college at East Texas Baptist University with the inten- tion of becoming an activities minister. Needing a part-time job, he signed on with a local funeral home, having never attended a funeral. After two years, he transferred to Hardin- Simmons to continue his education, soon meeting his future wife, Kim. Still intent on ministry, he applied at an Abilene funeral home where a friend was working. “When I went on the interview, I had long hair and a beard,” recalls Pond, who now co-owns and runs Kornerstone Funeral Home as the director of the Tulia location. “The first thing he told me was that I’d have to cut my hair. I said I would.” While the nature of funeral home work never bothered Pond, he said he did wrestle with whether God was leading him away from his original career goal. He quit after a year and sat out three months, then finally went back and worked full-time, beginning to believe this was his life’s path. “The Lord just pulled me back into it. I fought it for a while, though,” he said. “I just knew it was a min- istry and the Lord was calling me to it.” A soft-spoken, gentle man, Pond said things began to comfort all who mourn, the oil 4 footprints g the mourning to fall into place after he finally sur- rendered to God’s call. After Kim graduated from HSU, the couple moved to the Metroplex, where he attended mortuary school, earning the equivalent of 52 college credit hours in the span of a year. He took morning classes and worked as a security guard from 4 p.m. to mid- night, giving him a perfect place to study for the intensive mortuary study courses. After completing the school, Steve moved his family to Plainview and began working for Lemons Funeral Home. After eight years, the company asked Pond to run Wallace Steve Pond, a 1998 BSOE graduate of the Plainview campus, stands inside the lobby Funeral Home in Tulia, and eventually of Kornerstone Funeral Home in Tulia, which he co-owns and operates as the funeral director. he moved to family to the smaller community 25 miles north of Pond said he knows he is where have faith because they know where Plainview. he belongs and is glad to be in a their loved one is, and it’s easier on Around that same time, Pond ministry that fits him to a tee. me as well,” he said. “Knowing (their decided to pursue completion of his “We see people at the most diffi- loved one) is in heaven eases the college degree at Wayland.

  • You've Seen the Movie, Now Play The
    “YOU’VE SEEN THE MOVIE, NOW PLAY THE VIDEO GAME”: RECODING THE CINEMATIC IN DIGITAL MEDIA AND VIRTUAL CULTURE Stefan Hall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2011 Committee: Ronald Shields, Advisor Margaret M. Yacobucci Graduate Faculty Representative Donald Callen Lisa Alexander © 2011 Stefan Hall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Ronald Shields, Advisor Although seen as an emergent area of study, the history of video games shows that the medium has had a longevity that speaks to its status as a major cultural force, not only within American society but also globally. Much of video game production has been influenced by cinema, and perhaps nowhere is this seen more directly than in the topic of games based on movies. Functioning as franchise expansion, spaces for play, and story development, film-to-game translations have been a significant component of video game titles since the early days of the medium. As the technological possibilities of hardware development continued in both the film and video game industries, issues of media convergence and divergence between film and video games have grown in importance. This dissertation looks at the ways that this connection was established and has changed by looking at the relationship between film and video games in terms of economics, aesthetics, and narrative. Beginning in the 1970s, or roughly at the time of the second generation of home gaming consoles, and continuing to the release of the most recent consoles in 2005, it traces major areas of intersection between films and video games by identifying key titles and companies to consider both how and why the prevalence of video games has happened and continues to grow in power.

  • Selling the Splat Pack: the Dvd Revolution and the American Horror Film
    SELLING THE SPLAT PACK: THE DVD REVOLUTION AND THE AMERICAN HORROR FILM Mark Bernard A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2010 Committee: Dr. Cynthia Baron, Advisor Dr. Scott A. Magelssen Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Paul McDonald Dr. Maisha Wester ii ABSTRACT Dr. Cynthia Baron, Advisor In 2006, journalists began writing about the emergence of a group of young filmmakers who specialized in horror films featuring torture and graphic violence. Because of their gory and bloody movies, these directors came to be known as “the Splat Pack,” and they were depicted by the press as subversive outsiders rebelling against the Hollywood machine. However, what many discussions of the Splat Pack ignore is how the success of this group of directors was brought about and enabled by the industrial structure of Hollywood at the middle of the first decade of the twenty-first century. Drawing from political economy methodology, this study seeks to understand and illuminate the industrial changes and realignments that gave rise to the Splat Pack, first by looking at how industrial changes have affected the content of horror films of the past, and secondly by examining how the advent of DVD technology made way for the gory, “Unrated” films of the Splat Pack. DVD played a major role in the rise of the Splat Pack by changing the way horror films were presented to their potential audiences and by leading to an industry acceptance of “Unrated” films. With this in mind, this study then turns to an analysis of several key films directed by the Splat Pack and uses the commodity form of the DVD as a lens through which to interpret these films.

  • Capítulo 3. Terror En El Siglo XX Versus En El Siglo XXI
    Capítulo 3. Terror en el siglo XX versus en el siglo XXI Como se fue investigando a lo largo del presente PG, la evolución de los efectos especiales y las nuevas tecnologías influyeron en la realización de las películas de terror. Para poder observar estos cambios, en este capítulo serán analizadas cuatro películas de distintas décadas para notar las similitudes y diferencias que tienen entre ellas, destacando los efectos especiales que presentan cada una. 3.1 Drácula El análisis comenzará con una de las primeras adaptaciones del libro de Bram Stoker Drácula, la película del famoso vampiro dirigida por Tod Browning y producida por Carl Laemmle estrenada en 1931 por la productora Universal Studios. 3.1.1 Sinopsis El señor Renfield, un hombre de negocios, viaja hacia Transilvania para cerrar un trato con su cliente, el conde Drácula. Los habitantes del pueblo le advierten a Renfield que no vaya hacia el castillo, ya que sospechan que allí viven vampiros que al caer la noche despiertan y se alimentan de sangre humana, pero el hombre no hace caso a los avisos y continúa hacia su destino de todas formas para llevar a cabo su trato con el cliente. Al llegar al castillo Renfield nota que es un lugar amplio, oscuro y casi carente de muebles que parece estar abandonado, lleno de insectos y telarañas. Allí es recibido por el conde y conversan sobre su trato: conseguirle a Drácula una propiedad para vivir en Londres. Esa noche, el conde hipnotiza a Renfield bajo la forma de un murciélago y luego lo ataca, volviéndolo su esclavo.

    IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TENNESSEE AT NASHVILLE APRIL 2000 SESSION STATE OF TENNESSEE v. ANTHONY DAVID TAPP Direct Appeal from the Circuit Court for Rutherford County No. F-39407 James K. Clayton, Jr., Judge No. M1999-00414-CCA-R3-CD - Filed August 10, 2000 The defendant, Anthony David Tapp, was convicted of vehicular homicide as a result of intoxication. The trial court imposed a Range I sentence of 10 years. In this appeal of right, the defendant contends that the trial court erred by allowing into evidence pretrial statements which had been made by him but which had not been provided by the state in advance of the trial. The judgment is affirmed. Instructions by the defendant to witnesses of an accident not to speak to police did not qualify as discoverable material within the terms of Rule 16 of the Tennessee Rules of Criminal Procedure. In consequence, the defendant is not entitled to a new trial. Tenn. R. App. P. 3; Judgment of the Trial Court Affirmed. GARY R. WADE, P.J., delivered the opinion of the court, in which JERRY L.
